Troublemaker Killed : Ahearn, Turner to Bank on Heavies Hots_pur, 2d, Wins; L3 TUMBLE IS FATAL 0 GREAT LEPPER Captain Kettle !s Beaten' in Driving Finish for Maryland Hunt Cup. BY ROBERT B. PHILLIPS, Jr. Staff Correspondent of The Star. ORTHINGTON VALLEY, Md., April 27—Mrs. W. Austin Wadsworth's Hot- spur 2d, the lightly re- garded fourth choice in a field of eight horses, today won the most tragic run- ning of the Maryland Hunt Cup in modern times, besting the 3-to-2 favorite, Charles Cheston's Captain Kettle, by a neck in a driving finish. For 30,000 spectators who jammed the green hillsides of C. L. A. Heiser's country estate, Stuart Janney jr.’s brilliant ride and victory on the chest- nut son of Uncle George—Hera was | overshadowed by the death of Mrs. Thomas H. Somerville’s Troublemaker, acknowledged to be the greatest tim- ber horse in America and one that was to have been retired after today's race. Running an easy third and ap- parently fit to repeat his 1932 record- breaking triumph in this classic of all timber tests, Troublemaker got in wrong at the seventeenth fence, struck and somersaulted, breaking his neck. Noel Laing, who had ridden the horse to victory in virtually every great cup ! race on this side of the Atlantic and in 1933 finished the English Grand National course at Aintree, was not | hurt by the fall. He suffered, how- ever, as great a personal and senti- mental joss as a man could sustain in sport, for Mrs. Somerville had given | Troublemaker to him as a gift after this last race for the great son of Berrildon—The Busybody. He would have been retired to service as a hunter for the young Virginia gentle- man jockey, who had shared with him all his great hours of triumph. chase over 22 stiff barriers was H 9:12:3, 21 seconds behind the | 40-year record Troublemaker hung up | in 1932. Throughout the race the outcome seemed to lie between Hotspur, | Troublemaker, and Captain Kettle, which won here in 1933 and 1934 and would have retired the C. Ross Whist- | ler Challenge Cup by repeating this afternoon. The three always were well in the running, and although Charlie White allowed Captain Kettle to drop back into fourth place after the first four fences, it was obvious that his mount was full of run and ready to take issue in the closing furlongs. ‘When the field had negotiated suc- cessfully the 5-foot third fence, Janney swung the big striding chest- nut to the fore and thereafter relin- quished the lead only once. That was merely for a moment, when Redmond C. Stewart, jr., on Vaudeville headed the eventual winner between the eighth and ninth fences, and then slipped back again. The eighth brought the first of four casualties that cut the field in half. Benjamin Leslie Behr's Mullah, one of a two-horse entry, came down there, and although Sid Hirst caught the horse, he decided wisely not to remount and attempt to | catch the charging leaders. In the | second round Cockey Captain spilled | his owner-rider, John K. Shaw, j Troublemaker fell. and Vaudeville r fused and lost his rider two fences | from home. | 21 Seconds Over Record. OTSPUR'S time for the four-mile Caplain Kettle Meets Match, HE thousands who had backed the | favored Captain Kettle waiting patiently through 3% miles for White to make his move in the final quarter, for in his past victories the Cheston fencer always seemed to have more left than the bravest of them at the end. To- day, however, Captain Kettle met | his match in the stretch-running game. White and the captain were at Hotspur's heels a good 100 yards from the tape, but Janney let out another notch and clung to the lead like a flying fox heading for the den with hounds yelping hot at his flanks. Mrs. Vadim Makaroff’s Gigolo, which few had believed capable of jumping the 22 towering obstacles, finished third well behind the front ones, and Behr's Outlaw was fourth. Both were ridden by Virginia gentle- man riders. the former by William B. Streett of Warrenton and Outlaw by Henry Frost, jr., of Middleburg. Lured into the open by a perfect Spring day, the gaily garbed throng of sports lovers this afternoon broke all records for attendance at the most popular of America's cross- country meetings. Roads for miles around the course were jammed with a solid line of motors an hour and a half before post time, and at least a were | score of enthusiasts short-cut the | g, traffic problem by arriving in half a dozen aeroplanes. One enterprising chap even eliminated the tangles of pedestrian movement, hovering over- head in an autogiro and following the progress of the chase from his skyland vantage point. The results: Forty-second running of the Maryland Hunt Cup, 4 miles over timber, amateurs to ride. First, Hotspur 2nd, Mrs. W. Austin Wads- worth, Stuart Janney, jr.; second, Captain Kettle, Charles Cheston, Charles R. White; third, Gigoio, Mrs. Vadim Makaroff, William B.

ROOKLYN, April 27.—Babe Ruth accomplished nothing of note, except that he brought out a crowd of 21,600 paying fans, when he returned to the National League wars today, but his team- mates. with Dutch Brandt on the mound, ended the Brooklyn Dodgers’ five-game winning streak and tumbled them out of the National League lead with a 4-to-2 victory. On the “game” count the Dodgers still top the Giants by a half game, but a quirk of the early season averages gives the victorious New | Yorkers first place, .750 to Brook- lyn’s 727, Brandt held the Dodgers to six hits. one less than the Braves obtained off Ray Benge and two rookie left-handers, | Frank Lamanske and Bob Logan.

ITTSBURGH, April 27.—Dr. James N. Rule, State super- intendent of public instruc- tion, said today school sports “are suffering from an over- emphasis of commercial implica- tions and the importance of victory.” Addressing the convention of the American Physical Education As- sociation, Dr. Rule asserted “the value of high school athletics is not to win games and mythical championships, but to develop life interests and habits that will make for robust health and constructive use of leisure time.” He pointed out he is not “an apologist for the abuses which have crept into the administra- tion of athletics,” but added State and national high school athletic organizations are doing much to eradicate these abuses. Unfortunately, Dr. Rule said, the general public is not concerned with “educational objectives” in school sports, but “their interest is in the winning teams and the so- called star athlete on the team. “Because of this interest of the sports-loving public our students and school men have permitted themselves to become too much concerned with athletic supremacy.” (e(t\ reer | va. | | Gather 16 Hits in Taking Fifth | and | Totals.. 34 Totals. 1 *Batted for Phelps in seventh +Batted for Lamanske in seventh, .Bmm for Logan in ninth Boston...

The Last Race of America’s Timber Champion ‘The rider, F lash By tha Associated Press HICAGO, April 27.—Zeke Bo- nura, the Chicago White Sox’s big Italian first baseman, is off to a great start on his | campaign to prove that an attack of noldoutitis this Spring was based on more than self-esteem. Bonura figured that he was worth more money than the Sox mauage- ment offered him and the training season was two weeks old before he broke down and joined the squad at Pasadena, Calif. He insisted he was primed for a big year at bat, and in | the first 10 days of the American League campaign, at least has started to demonstrate that he was right. The figures, which include Friday's games, show the powerful youngster leading in four departments. He had 5 home runs. had batted in 13 runs, had scored 14 times and had a total | base collection of 32. He was fifth in the averages, his .368 ranking behind Bill Werber of Boston. Jimmy Foxx and Eric McNair of the Athletics and Odé‘ll (Bad News) Hale of Cleveland Wfl'bfl' had 395, to 3;8 for Foxx Record Shows Bonura Hcld Out With Justification and .371 each for McNair and Hale. Following Bonura, among the regulars, were Charley Gehringer, Detroit, .357; | Jack Hayes, Chicago, mada, Boston, .355, and Bob Johnson, Philadelphia, .342 Two other members of the surpris- | ing White Sox held leaderships. Hayes had the top mark in hits—16—while Vernon (George) Washingtcn, rookle outfielder, had punched out six doubles. Foxx and Joe Cronin, Bos- ton pilot, shared honors in three-base lhits with two each, and Lyn Lary of | Washington topped the base stealers | with three thefts. The White Sox, riding along with | Bénura, paced .the league in team batting with a lusty .305 average. Eight pitchers, all right-handers, shared the front row with two victo- ries and no defeats. They were Wes | Ferrell and Johnny Welch of the Bos- ton Red Sox, Willis Hudlin and Clint Brown of Cleveland, Sam Jones and Johna Whitehead of the White Sox and Johnny Broaca of the Yankees. | Buck Newsom of St. Louis had an even dozen strikeouts to his credit to | lead thn depanment CARDS’ HOMERS WASTED | Collins Hits Two, © Gain Decision, 8 to 5. ‘ ST.

The Chief, alias Ben Tenario, is not so | classy but he puts on a show that the incurables appear to like despite Wolf's tendency to overact. P nor Donovan is a cinch to steal .ie show, however.

Big Boys Click Turnstiles, F THE $122,821 to be counted at the box offices, nearly half was drawn by heavyweights, who headlined 15 scraps. The proof is there that it still is the big fellows who attract the customers. The big boys’ 15 tussles accounted for exactly $59,982.96, or an average gate of more than 4,000 potatoes. Arguing more for the drawing power of the heavyweights is the gross of $23,837.61 drawn by the next most popular weight division in this township. Even such names as Benny Bass. Al Foreman, Lew Feld- man and Petey Sarron couldn’t boost the average “take” for a 126-pound tilt to as much as $1.500. Seventeen times a pair of featherweights have gone to the post in a main event .since boxing was legalized nearly a vear ago. and only $23,837.61 has been grossed. They provide the action. the little fellows, but action doesn’t buy many groceries. Hamas, Lasky, Levinsky Warm. T 1S little wonder, then, that Ahearn and Turner are working on a heavyweight parade that quite possibly will aid the Canzoneri~ Klick fight in making this coming season the greatest in local ring annals. Buck Everett and Natie Brown will start the ball rolling a week from tomorrow, with the winner getting a crack at a nation- ally-known fighter. Ahearn already has made overtures to Steve Hamas and Art Lasky, and both are reported to be warm Neither King Levinsky nor Marty Gallagher has signed yet, but Ahearn is confident the pair will clash either in June or early in July. If Risko could draw nearly 10 “grand” with Natie Brown, and Tony Galento and Marty Gallagher could draw $28,000, then Hamas, Lasky and Levinsky should prove magnets at the box office. This Summer will mark the first time in Ahearn's long ring career that he has concentrated on heavy- weights. Heretofore Goldie’s forte has been feathers and welterweights, and who will argue that he hasn't | been successful in matching up these species? If he is equally as successful with the heavyweights, then the boxing outlook will be rosy, indeed, for the second year of legal- ization of the sport in the Capital.
